According to the Wisconsin State Legislature's official website, the bill was described as follows: "a sustainable aviation fuel production tax credit. (FE)".
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
In essence, this bill establishes a tax credit for the production of sustainable aviation fuel in Wisconsin, starting from the 2028 tax year. The credit is set at $1.50 per gallon of sustainable aviation fuel produced. To qualify as "sustainable," at least 90% of the fuel must be derived from synthetic, renewable, and nonpetroleum sources, such as energy crops, which must be grown within the United States for the credit to apply. Partnerships, limited liability companies, and tax-option corporations cannot claim the credit directly but can distribute the credit among their partners, members, or shareholders based on their ownership stakes.
The bill was co-authored by Senator Romaine Robert Quinn (Republican-25th District), Representative Clinton M. Anderson (Democrat-45th District), Representative Chanz J. Green (Republican-74th District), Representative Brent Jacobson (Republican-87th District), Representative Rob Kreibich (Republican-28th District). It was co-sponsored by Senator Brad Pfaff (Democrat-32nd District), Senator Mark Spreitzer (Democrat-15th District), and Senator Patrick Testin (Republican-24th District), along eight other co-sponsors.
David Armstrong has co-authored or authored another 66 bills since the beginning of the 2025 session, with none of them being enacted.
Armstrong, a Republican, was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 2025 to represent the state's 67th Assembly district, replacing previous state representative Rob Summerfield.
In Wisconsin, the legislative process starts when a senator, constituent, group, or agency proposes an idea for a bill. After drafting, the bill is introduced, numbered, and referred to a committee for review and public input. If approved, it moves through three readings and votes in both the Senate and Assembly. Once both chambers pass the same version, the bill goes to the governor, who can sign it, veto it, or let it become law without a signature. Only a small share of bills introduced each session ultimately become law. You can learn more about the Wisconsin legislative process here.
